Anyone been? Got access to some accommodation on the Spanish side and would like to go out there for a bit.
Lift assisted would be nice. Not much info from google on a quick search. Any guidance gratefully appreciated.
Great location, not too busy and cheap. Lift passes are available to bikers from the main ski station in Soldeau.
Great place, 2 resorts with bike parks:
Val Nord Pal Arinsal: lots of good trails, different grades great vibe.
GrandValira, Soldeau: pretty good especially the higher routes.
Commuting from across the boarder could be a pain as there are always traffic jams at customs (in both directions). Soldeau is closer to the French side than ValNord so harder to get to from Spain.
Val Nord is also very family friendly if thats an issue.

There is also La Molina in Spain, worth a look and albout 1 hr from the Andorran border

as per above check out La Molina as it is getting a lot of money spent there.. ;a massana in andorra go and call Cedric Gracia who has the bar and bike shop under the gondola station.. he knows all they reckon 😉
Brual breaking bumps at La Molina!
Thanks all.
Braking bumps. Awesome! I was going to take my hardtail too. 🙁
Yes! Valnord is amesome. Hire a DH bike or just ride the XC, great weekend and enough stuff to last you for at least a week. They even have a wood park.
The Andorran parks would be fine on a hardtail (up to red), the tracks are well maintained.
I wouldnt bother with a hardtail at La Molina
